Hi ladies and gents.

Names Cameron.

Recently bought a 1993 R32 GTST.

After looking around the forum for a few days, looks like a bought this car off a fellow member. Sorry cant remember the name.

Loving the car.

Im 21, and have recently become a qualified mechanic. Finished my time in January.

Ive owned a few cars over the last few years, including a couple of old Volvos, a Mazda MX-5 and still currently own a Subaru Liberty GT which im trying to sell.

Over the weekend ill take some photos and get them up on here.

Currently in the process of making my own airbox, hopefully will be finished this weekend.

I look forward to having a look around and contributing if i can.

Cameron.

Sorry its taken so long to get some pics up. Been flat out with work and all.

She aint perfect, but wheres the fun in buying a car that is.

Painted the wheels a few weeks ago. Not the grey i wanted at all, but will do for now until i get around to doing them again.

Over the next couple of weeks, ill be getting rid of those fog lights.

Installed a pioneer system yesterday. Now i just gotta fix my little miss fire problem and she's all good.

2 things.

1. Pics of Liberty GT

2. You need to rub one out on the bonnet, it's a long held initiation thing for R32 owners, just ask anyone.

    • Oh dear. The panel beating needs to be done before the filler work. Do you have a photo of the dent before you started? Hard enough to not flex and only hit the high spots?  What do you mean it was just temporary? 
    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
